PID

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is an infection of the uterus (womb), fallopian tubes and ovaries. If it is not treated early, PID can cause scarring to your fallopian tubes, especially if you get it more than once. This can cause infertility (inability to have a baby) or complications in pregnancy including ectopic pregnancy (where pregnancy occurs outside the uterus). Untreated PID can also cause ongoing pelvic pain.
